The Weekly Translation Tips by Globalization Group, Inc. have recently included a few lists and charts to help companies prioritize languages for translation. These include the following:
- Top Languages by Internet Usage - chart & list
- Top Languages by GDP (Percentage of GWP) - chart and table
- Top Countries by GDP (Percentage of GWP) - chart, map, and table
Another interesting resource that calculated the top languages based on both $ and internet use was Common Sense Advisory's Beta e-GDP calculator, but that website now forwards to CSA's homapage. CSA, what ever became of that e-GDP calculator?
Update: CSA says they do have plans to bring back the e-GDP calculator...

T-Index can be another interesting tool for companies to use when expanding into international online markets. The T-Index ranking combines the Internet population and its estimated GDP per capita, identifying the most profitable languages for multilingual websites. Have a look!
T-Index, the languages that matter on the web
